A new update for Grand Theft Auto Online has left the game in shambles for players on the Steam Deck. Here is what we know so far!
Well, GTA online is a cash grab and destroyed the single player DLC. So, good. Break it on all platforms for all I care.

Its broken in the sense that it doesn’t work, but it isn’t broken in the sense of oops we accidentally broke something.
They added BattleEye anti-cheat to online, without bothering to support linux.
Even though BattleEye can and does support Proton compatibility, and has for years, the developers of the game have to request or opt-in to this functionality.
But uh, Rockstar didn’t, because they don’t give a shit about linux players.

Remember that JSON issue? They don’t give a shit about any players.

It’s been… about half a decade since I last played GTO.
